We've seen it block on the line
string s=::read(8192,1);
in __stdio_read_callback.
So you mean the only situation when that can happen is if some other thread has managed to make a read before it? Then the real problem is probably that the read doesn't take place on the C level while the interpreter lock is held. What about moving all the stuff done in the pike level callbacks into Stdio.Fd, so that we can do away with them completely?

Hm? read() never blocks when data is available. Even on blocking sockets.
